"With a scientist's eye and an explorer's heart, Ricker sets out to optimize everything from cognition to creativity. If you're a brain-owner, you should be running experiments on yourself -- and this is the guidebook you're going to want."-- -- David Eagleman, author of Livewired and Incognito

Synopsis
One question has driven me from city to city. It has pushed me to hunt down experts across, the world. It has motivated me to scour hundreds of research papers. It has compelled me to jump from working in neuroscience research to technology startups and back to research-but research of a far more personal type. Finally, it has fueled my testing of dozens-no, let's be honest, hundreds - of apps, wearables, devices, and substance on myself. If I could answer this question for myself, I figured, I could answer it for others, too: How can I upgrade my brain? What does a "brain upgrade" mean? For me, it means getting consistent access to the best version of myself, not the one who slouches up on an average day. I want the version who learns fast, who recalls details that others forget, who juggles daily responsibilities without dropping anything important, who says just the right thing to make a friend feel better. The version of me who is bold, reliable, kind - and gets shit done. Science fiction shows us what a dramatic metal upgrade could look like. With the help of a pill, a man becomes a financial wizard in weeks. With neural implants, a woman masters helicopter piloting in seconds. Other stories describe flawless memory, effortless language learning, and boundless creativity. What if it didn't have to remain fiction though? Book jacket., What if you could upgrade your brain in 15 minutes a day? Let Elizabeth Ricker, an MIT and Harvard-trained brain researcher turned Silicon Valley technologist, show you how. Join Ricker on a wild and edifying romp through the cutting-edge world of neuroscience and biohacking. You'll encounter Olympic athletes, a game show contestant, a memory marvel, a famous CEO, and scientists galore. From Ricker's decade-long quest, you will learn: The brain-based reason so many self-improvement projects fail . . . But how a little-known secret of Nobel Prize winning scientists could finally unlock success Which four abilities--both cognitive and emotional--can predict success in work and relationships . . . and a new system for improving all four Which seven research-tested tools can supercharge mental performance. They range from low-tech (a surprising new mindset) to downright futuristic (an electrical device for at-home brain stimulation) Best of all, you will learn to upgrade your brain with Ricker's 20 customizable self-experiments and a sample, 12-week schedule. Ricker distills insights from dozens of interviews and hundreds of research studies from around the world. She tests almost everything on herself, whether it's nicotine, video games, meditation, or a little-known beverage from the Pacific islands. Some experiments fail hilariously--but others transform her cognition. She is able to sharpen her memory, increase her attention span, boost her mood, and clear her brain fog. By following Ricker's system, you'll uncover your own boosts to mental performance, too. Join a growing, global movement of neurohackers revolutionizing their careers and relationships. Let this book change 15 minutes of your day, and it may just change the rest of your life!

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
